Despite her fear of flying, Millie is smart and resourceful, making her a wonderful modern heroine. As Millie, Ana Scotney is a revelation. She has the most expressive face I have ever seen. The subtlety of her performance is increasingly captivating as are her physical, very human, comic moments. I could watch this young woman all day.

It treads a beautiful line of comedy and thoughtful reflection on being a young adult. I found the film entertaining throughout and I laughed frequently. With the action magnificently and thoughtfully photographed, this is a rare gem.

The wicked scene that the film's climax pivots on is audacious and exquisitely painful to share with Millie. This deft film earns its unique resolution.

I saw Millie Lies Low in Melbourne last week.

Great movie, impressive first feature directing by Michelle Savill to balance the tone so well, and really top notch unaffected acting by the cast. Do recommend!!!

The film weaves a beautiful line of awkward comedic relief and thoughtfully framed reflection on the confusion of being a young adult, and the relationships that come with it. I found the film entertaining throughout, I laughed frequently, and it also gave me pause for thought.

My partner and I chatted frequently over the following days about things the film prompted for us, like the way the lead character and her mum related, or laughing at moments like the scene that the film's climax pivots on.

Loved the Wellington NZ sets - only anyone that has travelled or lived there will be able to understand the aptness of the wind scene!!

Really love the amazing film. It is very powerful and yet you find yourself laughing out loud. The director brought out the brilliance in the incredible cast. Loved it.
